Tony,

Hear closely - the KX3 audio shuts down if there is excessive audio coming into the mic jack. I suspect that is what is happening.

Start over on the audio level controls with each of them set to mid-range, and then adjust for 4 bars solid with the 5th bar flashing on the ALC meter.

Don't forget about the POWER slider in WSJT-X. It is not a power control at all, it is just another audio level control.

73,

Don, thanks for your comments and the info on your website. Thanks also to
the others who replied.

I am not using AFSK A mode. I never should have said anything about AFSK --
I only mentioned it to explain that the WSPR signal comes from the audio
tone generated by the software.

I have verified that I'm getting audio out of the computer and into the KX3
mic jack. The mic bias is set to off. I'm transmitting into a dummy load,
swr = 1. The meter seems to show the right display (SWR 1 bar, power 2
bars), but when I touch the mic gain knob the display goes blank. I can no
longer get the display showing the ALC, no matter what I do.
